"But as you have said, we have an ergency at hand. My instincts tell that I can trust you. So listen carefully! The intruders are to be found as soon as possible! Look across the paraters of the palace," the captain shook his head and passed his orders.
"The captain said he trusts us! How exhilarating!"
"But Captain Why the paraters? We cannot enter the inner areas?"
"You don't have to worry about the palace. That place…" the captain shook his head. "There are more powerful people than you guarding that place and most importantly…"
He raised his head to look at the castle, "There is the Emperor!"
A look of admiration flashed through the eyes of the soldiers.
"Indeed! His Majesty is the strongest person in the empire!" All the guards raised their aura in determination and moved to search for the intruder.
The captain also made his move, but instead of walking towards the palace, he walked in the opposite direction and appeared at the entry gates of the Royal Estate.
His eyes looked past the locked gates and landed on the veil that had fully blocked their sight and path from the outside world.
*Woosh!*
Flying past the gate, he stood right in front of the white wall.
*Boing!*
He raised his hand and pressed his finger on the wall only for it to sink deep inside it.
"This is not that powerful… Sigh~ why did it have to happen today?" As he continued to poke his finger into the wall, it only stretched deeper and did not break at all.
Despite his strong instincts, the man failed to notice that soone had their eyes on him.
Far away in the Royal Estate, on one of the towering buildings, the sa intruder everyone was looking for was observing their actions with a smile on his face.
"The emperor is really sothing to be able to hire a monster like that." Chuckling to himself, the boy shifted his gaze to the guards running all over the palace.
"It's about ti… I should get myself started." Taking a step forward, the boy stepped off the roof with his arms wide open and a shit-eating grin on his face.
*Boom!*
"What was that?!!" A huge shockwave passed through the area. A puff of smoke rose to the air, catching the attention of the guards.
They all rushed to the source of the explosion with all of their strength. Discover exclusive content at empire
"Enemy spotted! Inform all the captains!"
"He is so young? Are you sure this is the enemy?" Upon arriving, they all saw a young boy standing there with his back facing towards them.
"Can't you see the foundation establishnt realm guards lying at his feet!" One of the guards roared before flaring his cultivation.
His words brought everyone's attention to the bodies lying on the ground. Being far away from the enemy, they could not confirm the state of their comrades.
"Don't let that bastard run away!"
"No! We only have orders to search for the enemy! I already sent signals to the captains; they all should be here anyti soon!"
"We cannot let him run wildly in the Royal Palace! He will keep on killing our comrades!!" The guards started to argue among themselves. Their interaction did not go unnoticed by their enemy.
"Co on, not a single one of you has the balls to take on a strong enemy?" The boy provoked the guards with a feral grin on his face.
"You!!!" Their expressions got worse when they saw him stomping on the face of a person lying close to his feet.
*Woosh!*
"I will kill you!!" So of the guards launched themselves at the young boy with their killing intent exposed.
"This is good, now we are talking~" The boy spread his arms, welcoming all the attacks coming at him.
Seeing the boy underestimating their strength, the rest of the guards felt anger filling their hearts and decided to help those who had already made their moves.
Each and every one of these guards was in the foundation establishnt realm, but their levels varied.
*Boom!*
*Bang!*
"One versus 69 foundation establishnt realm guards, now this is fun!" While evading the weapons slashing down at him, the boy exclaid.
With his hands behind his back, the boy did not just evade the attacks, he kicked the guards who ca close to him, taking down the ones behind them.
"Be careful, create distance! Attack in formation!" Noticing that 10 of their mbers had already fallen, one of the guards gave orders while the rest backed away.
The boy did not pursue them and silently watched their actions with his hands behind his back.
*Clang!*
Spears! Swords! Blades! Each group had different weapons.
*Woosh!*
"Their energy is synchronizing," the boy raised his eyebrows as he noticed the guards launching a technique at the sa ti.
"Military Formation! Charge!" All the guards yelled in unison. Their voices shook and vibrated with their blazing aura and will.
*Pa-pa-pa-PAAUUN!*
Their energy drained at a rapid rate, the drained qi took the shape of a giant mammoth followed by the sound of its trumpet descending the area.
If the sound of the mammoth's trumpet was enough to deafen soone, the attack that followed was on a different level.
*Woosh!*
"Hehe~ bring it on." The young man took a martial stance seeing the mammoth charging straight at him. Stabilizing his core, he brought one hand to the front while the other ford a fist.
"Is he going to take the attack head-on?"
"He is going to die! To think he is so arrogant that he is not even using his qi."
"He must be a body cultivator!" Seeing the enemy's actions, the guards scoffed in disdain. But the next mont, their eyes went wide in shock.
*Bang!*
*Screech!*
All the air around the boy ca to a still before it all ca crashing towards him when the mammoth stomped its feet at him.
*Boom!*
The feet of the towering beast ca crashing down at the boy without any rcy and t his fist. When their attacks collided, everything turned silent followed by a deafening roar.
Roar of a Superior Beast!
